Since most of tonight’s post is mostly populated by Magic the Gathering product, we’ll start out with the two non-Magic related items.

First up, is the second item release for Dungeons & Dragons aka D&D Next aka D&D 5.0 is out this weekend. The Icons of the Realm miniature set for the D&D Starter Set includes pre-painted miniatures for each of the six character classes, including cleric, fighter, wizard, and more.

The second non-Magic release for the week is the new Stormclaw box set for Warhammer 40K.

Acting like a semi-starter kit, Stormclaw features two playable armies, one for Orks, one for Space Wolves. Outside of a condensed, digest sized version of the 40K core rules, the box set also includes an exclusive Stormclaw campaign booklet and two exclusive figures for each army. Grukk Face-Rippa, for the Orks, and Krom Dragongaze, for Space Wolves, also come with rules for play.

Now to the Magic stuff.

In case you’ve been asleep for a month or so, the 2015 Core Set for Magic the Gathering is out. As is the case with all set releases for Magic, the standard booster boxes, Fat Packs, and Intro Decks have been released. Fat Packs contain nine booster packs of M15, two mini-deck boxes, one larger one, a spindown counter, and more. Intro Decks are pre-built sixty card decks and two booster packs.

For the first time, Wizards has also released a Two-Player Clash Pack. This dual deck set includes two entirely pre-built, playable decks, making it perfect for two friends to pick up and play. Similar to the previously released Event Decks, the Clash Pack contain a number of high dollar rares, including Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, Temple of Mystery, Genesis Hydra, and Courser of Kruphix.

Finally, if you’re going to be gaining a ton of new M15 singles, you’re going to want sleeves to go with them. Each of the six major Planeswalkers for the set have each received the sleeve treatment, so no matter what color you play, Wizards has you covered. As well, new playmats and binders have also been released.
